To the people that read regularly the Soxaholix: I don't know any of y'all but I felt deep hurt when I read the news about da kine. It was as it were my own brother had that accident. I regularly root for our brothers and sisters overseas doing the dirty work so that I can enjoy my freedom so da kine, my brother, I pray to God that you will be healed and that the Lord keeps you company through these difficult times.

2005-03-15 UPDATE - Good news, Shane has been taken off of his respirator early. He is still out of it but starting to come around. They will assess him and he may be going to Germany in 24 – 36 hours. This is a very positive sign. Looks like everyone’s prayers are working.

hey guys, da kine is out of the drug induced coma two days early and spoke to his wife this morning. he is speaking in complete sentences, but is still a little confused. ever the master of understatement, he said, "i seem to have been in a bit of an accident."
